About this scholarship
The children of Vermont-NEA members are eligible to apply for the Maida F. Townsend Scholarship. Students in their last year of high school, undergraduates, and graduate students are all eligible to apply. Students majoring in any discipline are eligible to apply, but preference may be given to those majoring in education or having that intention. Students may reapply for the award but may receive an award only once. The scholarship application cover letter should include answers to these questions: What makes you unique; What are your educational goals; and What are your plans for continuing education. The scholarship application also requires two letters of recommendation. Current high school students must have one recommendation from a guidance counselor or administrator, and one from a teacher. College students must have one recommendation from a professor in their field of concentration and one from another professor. Applicants also must submit a list of co-curricular and community activities. For students attending schools with unusual grading practices, an explanation of the grading system should accompany the transcript. Applications may be submitted through email or mail. Please visit the scholarship's website or contact the Vermont-NEA for more information.
